Thread: ATI HD 6970 - Installing Catalyst 11.6 in Maverick

ubuntu displaying desktop okay (though limited 1600x1200) after having installed new hd 6970 card, i'm trying install proprietary driver (i understand open source 1 requires more recent kernel in maverick).

proprietary driver under 'additional drivers' resulted in black screen on boot, deactivated , trying follow manual install instructions @ cchtml ubuntu maverick installation guide.

when try create .deb packages with:

code:

sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg ubuntu/maverick

i get:

code:
